Academy Standouts highlights the players who performed best in the most recent week of NA Academy play. I’ll discuss a few of the most noteworthy standouts, then list some other players whose performances caught my eye below.

Isles prevailed in the end, picking up wins on Leona, Nautilus, and Alistar while dropping games on Karma and Nautilus.

Academy Standouts: 2021 Summer, Week 10

Academy Standouts highlights the players who performed best in the most recent week of NA Academy play. I’ll discuss a few of the most noteworthy standouts, then list some other players whose performances caught my eye below.

Last week there were two Quarterfinals matches, so I’m going to highlight the standout player from each series.

A quiet Aphelios in game 1 was followed by four outstanding performances, with two games each on Ziggs and Varus.

With k1ng in this kind of form, C9A might actually be contenders again.
